Cookie butter.
Who knew this would be so popular?
Don't you kind of wish you invented it?
Me too.
Although had I invented it, I never would have thought to use those kinds of cookies; what are they again? The cinnamon cookies that make the cookie butter?
I think I would have used nutter butter cookies or the vanilla Oreo's.

Did you know that stuffing muffins with cookie butter is really genius?
It is, and you need to try these asap.

Yes those are my giant white, fuzzy slippers. With my bad knees I'm supposed to wear more supportive
cooking clogs in the kitchen.
Why can't they make fuzzy, slipper-like, supportive, comfy chef clogs?
Can someone get on this one?

In a large measuring cup or medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk
together the eggs, milk, vanilla and vinegar. Add the wet ingredients, along
with the melted butter, to the dry ingredients, stirring to blend; then add in
the chocolate chips. No need to beat
these muffins, just make sure everything is well combined. Lumps are good!

Scoop half the batter into the prepared muffin tin. Next
using 2 spoons or a very small cookie scoop, place a medium-large dollup of
cookie butter on top of the batter and in the middle. Fill the cups with
remaining batter, making sure to get the sides with batter. Do not push down!

Baking times:

Because of the vinegar added in the mix, baking times will
vary greatly.

I suggest baking for 9 minutes, rotating pans, then baking
for another 6-7 mins.

My muffins were done at the 15 minute mark. So keep this in mind when you’re baking.

You can always see if they’re done with a cake tester
inserted in the SIDE of the muffin comes out clean.

And the tops of the muffins will be firm.

Should make about 12 regular muffins. You can make jumbo
size muffin tins, just watch the baking times.

I have to say, I both love and hate whoever invented cookie butter. They have not helped my thighs out one bit...but they have made my taste buds very happy. These are genius muffins by the way. GENIUS.

Where do u get your dutched cocoa - I have just moved to the USA (Fl) and find it difficult to get what I think of as basic ingredients such as dutch cocoa, puff pastry and custard powder in the supermarkets.
